Find a last-minute babysitter in Redwood City, CA

Hello! My name is Lori, and I’m an experienced, caring, and dependable caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with children. After 15 wonderful years in my professional career, I recently stepped away to embrace a more balanced lifestyle. I’m now looking for a few babysitting opportunities each week where I can do something I truly enjoy—caring for and connecting with children. Being a daycare provider help me financially through college. I’m a mom of two children and raised them as a single parent, so I understand how important it is for parents to have someone they can trust and feel completely comfortable leaving their children with. I was also the primary caregiver for my father before he passed away, which further strengthened my patience, compassion, and sense of responsibility. I have experience caring for infants, toddlers, and young children. I currently babysit a 2½-year-old on a consistent basis and have been part of his life since he was a baby. I’ve also volunteered at Stanford Children’s Hospital in the Newborn Hearing Screening Unit, an experience that gave me additional exposure to newborns and families. I’m nurturing, patient, attentive, and responsible, and I enjoy creating a safe, positive, and engaging environment for children. I’m happy to follow your family’s routines and preferences and understand the importance of keeping parents informed and comfortable while they’re away. I would love the opportunity to meet your family and learn more about your childcare needs. Please feel free to reach out with any questions—I’d be happy to tell you more about myself and my experience!

Hi families! My name is Rafaella, and I’m a career nanny and family assistant with 9+ years of professional experience caring for children from newborns through the teenage years. I’m currently open to part-time, occasional, and one-time childcare opportunities, depending on the family’s needs. I have extensive experience with childcare, as well as mother’s helper and family-assistant responsibilities. I’m comfortable helping with school routines, activities, homework, meal and snack preparation, children’s laundry, organization, errands, and general household support. I enjoy keeping children active and engaged through outings, library trips, playdates, arts and crafts, and age-appropriate activities. I have reliable transportation, a clean driving record, and excellent references from families I’ve worked with long-term. I’m dependable, organized, hands-on, and value open communication and mutual respect with the families I work with. I’m located in Burlingame and am primarily looking for opportunities on the Peninsula, though I’m open to the right fit in San Francisco as well. I’m hoping to find a family who is looking for more than just a babysitter—someone they can trust, rely on, and welcome as a long-term part of their household.
